CGTalk - volume override?

Can someone tell me how to setup a volumic override? I have several passes setup, and i only want my lights volumetric properites to be active on my volume pass? Unless there is a much simplier way than using overrides for this?

I thought a simple way of doing it would be to simply turn off the "volume_light_effect" under the pass options, but this then comes back as soon as a start rendering?
Bet this is dead simple...
Cheers,
Dan.

Take the volume effect off of your lights. Try creating a seperate partition for your volume lights. Then apply the volume effect to the partition instead of the lights. Any pass that does not have this partition will render the lights as normal lights.
